Keep it down

Today, in the middle of one of the worst migraines of the year, I asked my wife if she could kindly stop trying to tell me about the latest neighbourhood gossip at 130 decibels. Cue her loudly nagging in my ear about how I’m mean for not wanting to spend time with her anymore. FML
I agree, your life sucks 1 000
You deserved it 147

Same thing different taste

NEIGHBOURHOOD GOSSIP!!! KAREN DOWN THE STREET PUT OUT HER HUSBAND AND SHE’S USING IT FOR SYMPATHY TO GET EVERYONE TO BUY HER DAUGHTER’S GIRL SCOUT COOKIES! YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS! DON’T BUY FROM KAREN, BUY FROM SUSAN! SUSAN IS HEAD OF THE HOA AND WE NEED TO BE ON HER GOOD SIDE SO SHE APPROVES OUR PROPOSAL TO MAKE THE JOHNSONS REPAINT THEIR HOUSE FROM THAT AWFUL CREAMY BEIGE COLOR THAT DOESNT MATCH THE APPROVED SHADE OF BEIGE ON THE LIST OF ALLOWED HOME COLORS! WHAT?! STOP PRETENDING YOU HAVE A MIGRAINE AND LISTEN TO ME! THIS IS IMPORTANT!

Okay, it could be the format that I'm reading this but I still don't know what your wife was talking about. The neighbourhood what?

Who asked you to marry a jet engine? Is that even legal?

FYL for her not respecting your request to lower her voice but you could have asked her more respectfully. Also, did you tell her you have a migraine? Have you been distant with her before this? Did you know she didn't have an indoor voice before marrying her? I need more information before I can vote.

Ugh I’m with someone who YELLS normal conversations all the time and there’s no way I can ever ask nicely enough. I try to ask as nicely as possible and get my head bitten off every time because I guess it means I’m embarrassed of them? Idk it’s something some of us need to deal with. Some of us just prefer our decibels to come at us in the normal range, I guess, but others prefer things...on another level.
